Location & Description:
387 Pickersleigh Road enjoys a particularly convenient location less than five minutes on foot from the centre of Barnards Green where there is an excellent range of amenities including shops and banks, Somerfield supermarket, public houses and places to eat out. It is less than five minutes walk from the Chase School, the catchment area within which it falls. There is also a primary school very close by. The wider facilities of Great Malvern are less than a mile distant. These include a comprehensive choice of shops and banks, Waitrose and Somerfield supermarkets, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium.
Transport communications are well catered for. Great Malvern railway station is only about five minutes walking distance. Junction 7 of the M5 motorway at Worcester and Junction 1 of the M50 at Upton are both less than ten miles.
Originally constructed in 1897, the property is a particularly elegant semi detached Victorian House which retains much of its character and original features. These blend well with more contemporary improvements such as double glazing and gas fired central heating (with a modern boiler only five years old).
The house is deceptive as the accommodation has been extended on to three floors. At ground level an entrance porch opens into a sitting room, separate dining room, small kitchen, utility area and cloakroom with WC. On the first floor there are two bedrooms and a large bathroom with shower and WC. On the second floor there is a generous third "attic" bedroom.
The perfect finishing touch is to be found outside where a wide gravel driveway provides parking for at least two vehicles and leads to a separate garage. The good size garden at the rear is ideal for kids. It is certainly much larger than one would normally expect for a house in this category. With all this space there is plenty of room to extend the accommodation or to create a new garage block/workshop.
